Park City Council race down to five

Jack Martin Thomas has withdrawn his candidacy for this fall’s Park City Council race. According to Cindy LoPiccolo, Park City’s election official, Thomas notified her on Monday. Thomas was nominated by petition last Wednesday, shortly before the filing window closed. The petition was turned in by Mary Wintzer. There are now five candidates competing for the two open City Council seats. There will still be a primary runoff election on Tuesday, Sept. 15 to narrow the field to four candidates for the two seat. Thomas has not yet been reached for comment.
